Afrinolly Appointed First DaVinci Resolve Certified Training Partner In Africa

BEVERLY HILLS, November 29, (THEWILL) – Afrinolly, a creative hub in the heart of Nigeria’s commercial city Lagos, for filmmakers, screenwriters, mobile technology developers, animators and other creatives, has been appointed the first Certified Training Partner for DaVinci Resolve in Nigeria as well as in Africa.

This was revealed by Chike Maduegbuna, CEO Afrinolly Limited saying saying, “we are excited to partner with Blackmagic Design to provide a fully certified training program for users of DaVinci Resolve in Nigeria and Africa.

“This training program will increase adoption and expertise of the most powerful colourist tool and in turn increase the quality of post-production jobs done here.

“In setting up the Afrinolly Space creative hub, we wanted a platform to institutionalize global best practices in the area of film/video content production and we are excited that Blackmagic Design recognized this.”

THEWILL recalls that a few months ago, at NAB 2017 in Las Vegas, Blackmagic Design had announced a new worldwide training and certification program, along with certified curriculum for DaVinci Resolve.

In the recently released book ‘The Definitive Guide to DaVinci Resolve 14’ Grant Petty, CEO Blackmagic Design, described DaVinci Resolve 14 as a all in one software solution for video editors.

“I think one of the most exciting things about DaVinci Resolve 14 is that it combines a true professional video editor with the same incredible color correction tools used in Hollywood on high-end films and television shows, and Fairlight audio, all in one software solution.”

Bobola Oniwura, Creative Director and Afrinolly’s Certified DaVinci Resolve Trainer who returned recently from the UK where he got certified, revealed that the first training would hold in December.

“With the release of DaVinci Resolve 14, a tool originally designed for Hollywood’s elite colourists has been revolutionized into an advance application for professional editing, colour grading and audio post production.

“This training program will initially focus on DaVinci Resolve 14 and include Editing, Colour and Audio curriculum and certification. I am excited to have the first class in December.”
